Tender Boats Frequently Asked Questions

What is a tender boat?

A tender boat—also known as a yacht tender—is a smaller vessel used to ferry passengers or supplies to and from a larger mother ship, especially when the main vessel cannot dock directly.

Tender types include RIBs, simple dinghies, chase boats, limousine-style tenders, jet-powered mini tenders, amphibious tenders, center-console models, and even classic runabouts.

Tenders are used for transfers ashore, provisioning, light fishing, watersports, diving, rescue ops, or simply offering short boat rides—often doubling as functional support or guest transport.

Prices range widely—from simple rowable dinghies costing under $5,000, to luxury limousine tenders or custom chase boats costing well over $200,000, depending on size and features.

Yes—chase tenders are driven separately or towed and may offer overnight features. Limousine tenders provide enclosed luxury seating with climate control and guest comfort.

Owners and crew of yachts and superyachts use tenders for transport, recreation, diving, fishing, and supplying the mothership—especially when the larger vessel must stay at anchor offshore.
